Merge lp:~vanvugt/compiz-core/update-NEWS-20120130 into lp:compiz-core/0.9.5

[Daniel van Vugt]

Updated list of bugs fixed in 0.9.7.0, current as at 2012-01-30.

Also includes intermediate bugs (regressions that never made it into the wild), which we may not want to mention.

[Alan Griffiths (alan-griffiths)]

Looks OK to me. But I don't have a definitive reference to check the buglist against.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

The definitive reference is:
https://launchpad.net/compiz-core/+milestone/0.9.7.0
Though even that changes regularly.

I don't expect NEWS will be 100% correct even when released. But at least this proposal makes it more correct.

[Sam Spilsbury (smspillaz)]

Indeed.

I will update the release scripts to automatically update NEWS based on the --fixes entries in bzr log (something I've wanted to do for a while, since NEWS handling is really tedious)

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Automation is a nice idea. But it actually doesn't take much effort to paste the table into a spreadsheet and then export it to text. And at least doing it by hand we can get the line wrapping right...
